Lee, you need merits to train in psyonics.. Well, that's the easiest way. He suggests just training Mele. Also, I can make you a long staff if you want to. Any specifics?

Another method is to train it (not sure if this still works anymore), where Archi will give you a set time to completion per level. Then secretly work on the puzzles for research. :thumbup:

@ Earth: Not much for specifics on the staff, except it needs to be long (duh), not easily meltable (it melting would be terrible), and definitly not easy to bend. BTW: anybody good at martial arts/melee? Handing me a gun and telling me to shoot seems like a bad idea.

 

@Retech: I AM DOING SO TERRIBLE WITH THE PUZZLES!!!

I'm the mele combat specialist, level 3 for it. And I can make a gravtech version of it.. Or maybe.. Ah! Combine thinkbow with the staff?

Whats a thinkbow?

Also, Archi, any chance you can tell me before the next session how much they cost to produce?

@Mather, you would need to remind me of all the things you have...my mind is mushing.

 

Btw do we have both pipes and rods, or just one or the other?

Both.

 

Archi, in my case the recurring headache was caused by sinusitis, the same might be the case with you.

There are multiple causes, one is my headphones, one is flu, one is overthinking, one is the computer screen being too large for(relative to how close I am)...Also I clench my teeth when I am concentrating, which I find gives me a massive headache...tried everything, I just end up chewing it apart, or locking it between my teeth.

Thought activated plasma weapon, shoots arrows made out of pure damning plasma fire.

@Earth: OOooooooo that seems cool, and kinda badas (I misspelled that on perpose). I can see it as one minute ya wack someone in the head with the staff, the next minute a plasma fire arrow percing your opponent's heart. COOL!!!!

It was a weapon made for you, actually, Lei. After Katniss' bow.

Oh, I don't remember it being made. Speaking of Katniss...... I know my theme songs for the next two sessions :twss: betcha Faust might know them both

Actually, make it I know the theme songs for me over the next five sessions and betcha Faust knows two of them.

 

Interesting...Since Faust said there was a bow made fore me, is it possible to recycle parts from that and combine it with the staff to turn it into the staff earth and I were talking about that I thought was cool?

When I finally get back to space, I'm gonna get a bunch of research points and devise something that lets me climb on walls and ceilings. Then have an ion cannon backpack, aimed via DF Visor.... Dang, I wish my school schedule didn't conflict with most of the sessions.

Unfeasible.

Aaand don't expect to recieve funding for any of that. :)

 

Are you up for a session today Archi, or are you still out?

Still out, I am afraid, looked like I was better last night, then slept for 15 hours, work up feeling tired and had to rush to the bathroom...so...

Faust, that's up to Jeremiah.

 

Jeremiah, think 30kT would be a fair price to test the hoverboards in normal circumstances? Also, remember that you, as an AI, with the right attachement, could use the boards at their full potential... at least better than human pilots, since your robotic body might somewhat impede the board.

Yeah, Mather, what exactly is the advantage of Hoverboards? What do they use to "hover?"

Ion drives, pretty obvious choice since they are just a mesh of metal and electromagnets and their usefull size is meassured in m².

And thy can be used as personal crafts efficiently both in space, on planets and inside buildings, though the latter would require training. They are also as a result of their size much easier to conceal and can as a result be used to sabotage enemy ships. They are also in general much better than the Unity's standard shuttles.

I'm not sure. I'll weigh up their merits and drawbacks when I get the time.

Ooo! Chi do you think it is possible to fight on top of a hoverboard? Obviously, it may not provide much of a hight advantage but maybe if the user was really good at menuvering on a hoverboard, there'd might be an advantage with menuverability.

Lei, you'd just bump your head. Jeremiah and I have been wanting to work on a main battle tank for a while to use in ground combat, so the board's a silly idea for that. For hijacking enemy ships, transporters are altogether more effective. I also don't really see how you'd maintian your orientation, especially in space, while moving forwards at any real speed. And why have electromagnets, so your feet stick to it?

No, I wouldn't bump my head. I'd probably fall off, but thats why we TRAIN to use the hoverboards. Probbably, we could learn how to use the hovarboards inside and outside. Then while fighting idiots (zombies) we could just pick them off one by one. "1...2...3...4...27...43...387...1313..." :twss:

In space, why not just use a jet pack?

Jetpacks are OVERDONE!!!!
